Rising up from Nendaz (40cm x 30cm)
Rising up from Nendaz is an oil painting depicting the Dent de Nendaz (tooth of Nendaz’ which is visible when disembarking the main gondola from Nendaz itself. It shows the pistes congregating back down into the main skiing area and is one of my favourite areas to ski around. If you follow the piste down, there’s an epic area to practice turning and carving. It really is outstanding!
Oil paint on stretched canvas, unframed.
A certificate of authenticity is included.
The mountains help me to exhale, unwind and rest - and I hope these paintings make you feel the same way!

The story behind the New Beginnings Collection
Last December I was ski race training with my technically blind husband in Kaunertal, Austria - we ski race together for Great Britain and are working towards the 2026 Paralympics. Unfortunately, while training between Christmas and New Year, I had a bad crash and broke my tibia plateau in my leg even more badly.
It was a gruelling recovery over 9 months (3 of which were completely non-weight bearing in a wheelchair) and there were times when I was extremely low in my mood. I distracted myself with painting as much as I could and spent the summer of 2023 doing my physiotherapy, gaining strength and painting my beloved mountains.
And as I write this, I’m back in Kaunertal after ski training for the first time since my crash. So it seems only fitting that I call my newest collection the ‘New Beginnings' collection - because that’s really what it feels like. I still have my ACL (that was repaired 6 years ago!); my leg is now pretty much healed and I can ski guide my husband again. LIFE IS GOOD.
And I want to celebrate that by sharing my favourite mountains with you - because everyone deserves mountain magic in their lives!

Why the mountain obsession?
For me they are the ultimate. The ultimate strength; the ultimate height; the ultimate power. When standing on top of them, they give a sense of perspective that’s hard to find anywhere else in the world. When skiing down then I get a thrill and sense of shared joy and fun that I don’t get anywhere else in the world. And when I’m at the bottom looking up, they give such a solid sense of reassurance. I’m the happiest I ever am in the world.
And I want to share this. I want to share the benefits of the mountings with more and more people. I tried to capture those feelings and express them through my paint. I want to give you something different; something fun and something joyful.
All proceeds from my art go to funding our disabled ski racing career.
